Nickname

edit
I always thought/understood his nickname was "Fitzy", both in print and on TV.

Definitely "Fitzy" while he was in Big Brother. In fact this nicknaming style spread with housemate "Bree" being nicknamed "BreeZy", etc. Haven't watched his post-BB appearances so don't know if the nickname has changed. Asa01 02:25, 30 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

It was "Fitzy" while on Big Brother but it was changed for some reason, most probably so people are more likely to know who is being referred to for subsequent television appearances (after all, "Fitzy" is a bit abstract).203.164.168.70 23:49, 13 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

The radio station he's on (Nova 91.9) calls him 'Fitzy'. After careful consideration, it was decided he definitely does have a face for radio, and was shuffled off our screens and onto our airwaves.

I believe his surname is actually Friese and his nickname was Freisey and Fitzgerald is a stage name of sorts? Comes.amanuensis (talk) 08:30, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

No, he was drafted as a footballer called Ryan Fitzgerald, before he went on to be on TV/radio. The-Pope (talk) 12:04, 2 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
